If it's a GCC-compiled .c file, the error may be because the function uses an inline asm() statement which has a "call" instruction. An asm() statement with a call instruction must declare the use of the - stack pointer in its output operand. For example, on x86_64: + stack pointer in its output operand. On x86_64, this means adding + the ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT as an output constraint: - register void *__sp asm("rsp"); - asm volatile("call func" : "+r" (__sp)); + asm volatile("call func" : ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT); Otherwise the stack frame may not get created before the call. |
